Some of you may recall that we initially wanted to adopt a different bunny to bond with Arce. Whilst I adore Yuki and wouldn't change how things have panned out for the world, I'm delighted to announce that that different bunny has finally landed on his four paws along with the rest of my Wayward Buns.
So, finally, it's time to introduce Niji!
Niji's name means "Rainbow" in Japanese. We chose it to honour two of our bridge bunnies - Takumi (a name also of Japanese origin) and Iris (the Greek goddess of the Rainbow.) It also fits with Arce (Greek goddess of the double rainbow) too. We've been calling him both Niji and Taco (his rescue name) on and off for the past few weeks, whenever we've been talking about him. Thankfully the name suits him!
Anyway, Niji found himself at Honeybunnies, leaving behind an ex-wifebun and several kits (who are now, thankfully AT Honeybunnies. :thumb: - one of the daughters seriously reminds me of him.) However, when it came to being neutered his recovery was less than smooth, and put his life at risk several times over. Due to his fighting spirit and Jill's expertise, he made it through and finally he's been allowed to come home.
Niji is a sweet little lad, with a heart of gold. He's a little timid but coming out of his shell. He's discovered a great love for running through the tunnel under my bed. Initially, I tried to bond him with Elphie and Selene, as they are the only pair I have without the presence of a buck. However, they will continue to remain without a buck, as it turned out to be a recipe for disaster, and the girls quickly rejected him. So, next I tried him with Arce and Yuki. And guess what? That's where he's staying. Niji is still trying to find his feet in the group, but he'll get there. I'm hoping that he'll help Yuki with his excess energy as he can sometimes be a little overbearing and overdemanding for poor Arce.
So that's that then. I was offered a choice between two suitors for Arce, and she's ended up with both! Funny how these things happen!
"Hurr hurr, I have 2 husbuns now!"
